Make a difference in the challenge to confront global warming and prevent nuclear war and the development and use of nuclear weapons.
Climate change’s threats to human health and life are growing. Will you join our latest effort to roll back climate change?
In his State of the Union address, President Obama called
for an America “built to last” and relying on clean energy. He spoke powerfully against oil subsidies
that have propped up that industry for a century. Yet he has consistently supported federal
loan guarantees for the nuclear industry.
When he releases his budget February 13th, we will know
whether he continues to support the program.
Nuclear power is dangerous and cannot survive economically without government subsidies. The Title XVII Loan Guarantee program uses taxpayer dollars to back risky loans for new nuclear reactors and requires little transparency. After the lessons we should have learned from the Fukushima catastrophe and the Solyndra loan guarantee debacle, there can be no justification for continuing nuclear loan guarantees. This is not the path to a clean energy future. It is time to end this program.
Tell President Obama to abolish the Nuclear Loan Guarantee Program!
Take Action »Hold political candidates accountable to their positions on federal loan guarantees for new nuclear reactors.
Tell your House member to defeat special subsidies for dangerous new nuclear reactors!
